Bed & Breakfast Description

Osler House was built in 1848, in the early Victorian era by William Miller, a lawyer who practiced many years in Dundas, and was later appointed the judge for the nearby county of Waterloo. This historic house was the childhood home of Sir William Osler, the world-famous physician, as well as his emminent brothers- lawyer B.B. Osler and member of Parliament Sir Edmond Boyd Osler. This exquisite Georgian-style house, which offers the romance of a distant and gracious time, has been lovingly restored, blending 21st century convenience and technology with 19th century charm and elegance. Guests are treated to the refined level of hospitality practised in the aristocratic homes of the Victorian era: warm, personal and welcoming.

Osler House had received numerous awards and accolades. We have featured in the Dundas House tour, and Doors Open Hamilton. We received the Hamilton B&B of the year award for 2012., as well as being designated a highlight of Hamilton by the Moon Guide to Ontario and rated one of the best places to stay in Ontario by Janette Higgins. Her Royal Highness Pricess Margriet of the Netherlands stayed here in 2012.

Three luxuriously appointed bedrooms are offered, each with private bathroom, comfortable king or queen sized bed, TV, and wireless high-speed internet. Epicurean meals, freshly prepared and pleasing to the most discriminating pallet, are served in the elegant dining room or on the cheerful sun porch in the summer season. The historical ambiance of Osler House, replete with antiques and personal treasures, entices the senses and coaxes our guests to enjoy and relax. Perfect for a romantic getaway or a memorable business stay, we offer a private and tranquil setting, where deer and rabbits are often spotted on the property; yet it is within walking distance of charming stores, transportation and restaurants. Downtown Toronto and Niagara Falls are less than an hour’s drive away; the Royal Botanical Gardens, McMaster University and Medical Centre, the Bruce Trail, and numerous conservation areas are mere minutes away.
